Yeah, that’s crazy. Half off the lowest price!

That gets my attention. Aren't these effects plugins really old? Are they well supported? I take it you and others here are fans of their effects? Would you recommend them? That price is compelling.

They are basically abandonware since 2015-17. Many known bugs will simply not go addressed and there's not going to be much support.

I used to recommend the SSL strip, but I stopped using it because the bugs got to me and I find the thing too unreliable to use for serious work. It works most of the time, but even if it fails only 1 out of 10 times, why expose myself and my sessions to that risk level.

Some of the bugs are hard to detect. For instance, one that made me lose confidence was a weird behavior in the SSL bus comp. Sometimes it would act/sound jittery out of nowhere, and you might miss spotting it in the song if you use it on an individual track or subgroup. So then I decided I'm not touching that comp again. So then why bother with the strip at all. Sad really, because otherwise it's a great strip if it worked as intended.

Having said all of that, the huge bundle for $50 is a fantastic deal, for the plugins that are not buggy and for as long as the thing continues to work under new OS releases.

Absolutely save your money for another deal. These are total junk. Most of these plugin are 10+ years old, and they weren't even particularly good back then.

(I had the "integral bundle" back in like 2007, and I have yet to experience worse buyer's remorse.)

Well, I like them. They include Cosmos and Magnetic. For $49 I consider it a no brainer but I’m pretty sure they’re not actively supported anymore.
